Lucy celebrated her fourth birthday in early of October 2015. Her birthday even fell on General Conference. As a result, we spent the day at home listening to the prophets and apostles and celebrating this cute girl.

Lucy had been so excited to celebrate her special day! She was thrilled with being four.

She woke up and started the day off with doing something that she loves...play doh! One of Lucy's favorite things is a new, fresh can of play-doh!

We had a delicious breakfast and had friends over to celebrate.

We then watched conference and Lucy took a nap. After Lucy woke up, she was more than ready to enjoy her presents!

The kids were so cute and excited giving Lucy her special gifts!

Lucy was so excited to ride her bike that she received from Brandon and I. Within moments, she was anxious to get outside and ride her bike on the back patio.

We spent the rest of the evening playing games she loves. We played. "Don't Eat the Princess" from her party.

We also had cake and ice cream!

I love this little girl! She is so full of spunk and personality. She has the best smile in the world. Her whole face lights up when she smiles.

She loves spending time with her family; especially, at the park! This girl can swing and pump her legs like a pro.

Lucy loves to be silly! She loves it when her daddy plays tickle monster.

Lucy is still a big mama's girl and prefers mama the best.

Lucy loves to read books!

Another favorite thing of Lucy's is that she loves to paint!

We are so grateful to have this sweet girl in our life! She fills our days with much laughter and happiness. We love this dear girl!

Quote of the Week

"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly."-President Thomas S Monson

Sisters, there is something inspiring and sublime about the little forget-me-not flower. I hope it will be a symbol of the little things that make your lives joyful and sweet. Please never forget that you must be patient and compassionate with yourselves, that some sacrifices are better than others, that you need not wait for a golden ticket to be happy. Please never forget that the “why” of the gospel of Jesus Christ will inspire and uplift you. And never forget that your Heavenly Father knows, loves, and cherishes you.—President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
